Question
Baby boy, 1 month old, mouth pain and slight cough, low fever not subsiding, how to treat the child’s tonsillitis?
Answer
It is recommended to choose the appropriate antibiotic or anti-inflammatory medication under a doctor’s guidance for the child to take, which can alleviate the symptoms of inflammation. At the same time, regional treatment such as gargling or direct application of medication can be considered to enhance the efficacy. Depending on the child’s symptoms, painkillers may be given. If the child has a fever, it should be treated according to the situation; if it exceeds 40 degrees Celsius, medical attention should be sought immediately. If the medication is ineffective and recurrent, surgical treatment may be considered. At the same time, arrange for light meals and supplement nutrition to help the child recover quickly.
